Mirko Cro Cop: Chael Sonnen has an IQ of child's shoe size
Posted on October 13, 2011, 02:59 PM by Anton GurevichMixed Martial Arts icon Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic hit back at Chael Sonnen, labeling the former UFC Middleweight title challenger an "idiot with an IQ of child's shoe size". Sonnen blasted Filipovic on several occasions, often suggesting that the Croat's achievements in the sport are far from being hard earned. This time, Cro Cop had a choice of words for Chael Sonnen and a promise that he will "iron" the Oregonian's a-- if they ever meet face to face outside the UFC.
"You can tell by his face that the man is slow, that he is stupid and has the IQ of a child's shoe size. You can tell this by his face, the way he communicates and let's not get into his calling out of people like 'Minotauro' Nogueira, Fedor's accomplishments or Wanderlei Silva's, me, so on. People whose heights he will never reach. Is he crazy? Obviously he is, but I'm not mad at him. It's just as I can't get mad at my eight month old son Filip. That man holds a PhD in idiocy. I'm only sorry that he is missing like 30 pounds because I would beat his ass so bad he would multiply three times. In anger I would beat him up so bad that I would split him apart. I would clone him into three specimens. One day I'm hoping to see him summering in Croatia, so I can iron his ass, so steam can shoot out his pompous ass. That's what he needs to know." - via MMAMania.com

WOE! Those were the toughest words I've heard in MMA.... with that said, I don't think anyone can walk through Chael in standup, no matter who they are.
I have seen more pictures of Cro Cop with a stupid looking face then I have of Chael.
Examples would be immediately after Cro Cop vs Schaub ended
Right after Cro Cop vs Gonzaga ended
Right after Cro Cop vs Mir ended
Hmm oh and after Randleman....
Three words: Catch weight bout!
mirko will ko nelson with a nice high kick and retire a happy man
I see nelson knocking him out in the first round
id LOVE to see crocop headkick chael, but in all honesty.. chael can easily take him down, and submit him, if he can do it to brian stann he can do it to crocop, and if not, well he will just out work him, and demoralize crocop which is pretty easy to do lately, im not saying he isn't mostly right about what he said, but in reality, he would never split him in two. he would lose a decision or get subbed (im positive chael has been working bjj quite a bit since his time off. He would have had all the time in the world to learn the theory while not training hard, i may be wrong, but, i doubt it.
chael would beat up cro cop for sure...anderson would too
dont feel bad about the weaks, most people on this site share chael's shoe size, i mean IQ
Who's chael sonnen??? That guy that said lance armstrong gave himself cancer by using PEDs and then went on to do the same thing?? Or the guy who ran a mortgage / money laundering scam???
Or the guy who lost to anderson silva and for some reason thinks he won??? These have to be seperate people cus the UFC couldn't possibly be signing a check to a one guys like that
No...Its the guy to beat the crap out of spider for 95% of the fight but still lost. Anderson was so humiliated the he got on his knees and bowed before Chael after the fight....
if you think chael could beat up crocop youre as stupid as chael...
I tried posting this video on the site a few weeks ago Anton but it wouldn't let me.
and if the next time I'm in Oregon and I see you walking by my car I'm gonna honk real loud to make you jump. and if I find out your fishing spot I'm gonna dive under and tie a boot to your fishing hook and when you see me climbing out of the water and ask if I did it I would say "I don't know, I don't know..."
tough words from the big man. Mirko def Nelson via decision.
sonnen shouldn't be in a same sentence with greats like wanderlei, fedor, big nog or cro cop!
and his drug test still has to come clean after his last fight...
Unfortunately, Cro cop is not in the same shape he was in the Pride days.
That is one of the reasons he has been getting his as kicked in the UFC.
His takedown defense is not as good to defend against some of these upper skilled fighters of today. The proof is in his recent record in the UFC.
I seriously dont think he is going to be able to beat Nelson. Nelson will just keep coming and take everything Cro Cop will dish out. Nelson will take him down and finish him.
im gonna get so weaked but whatever,Cro Cop needs to STFU,he is way past his prime and talking complete shit,he has done horrible in his ufc debut,at least when Sonnon talks shit,everyone listens.
Cro Cop in his prime was a beast, I am a fan, and I mean no disrespect with what I am about to say.
I think Chael would handle Cro Cop easily, and I do mean easily, in an open weight fight. At around 230, Cro Cop is realistically only 20 pounds heavier than Chael, who walks around at 210. He does not have the takedown defense to deal with a wrestler of Chael's caliber, and he does not have the ground game to pull of a submission from his back. He would have to be cautious about throwing kicks, which would take away his biggest weapon. He would be on his back for 3 rounds, or until he tapped out.
